So go the blessings of Cinderella's fairy godmother throughout the struggles and eventual triumphs of a young girl against her oppressors. Set in the exotic islands of the Philippines, this tale captures the mystical charm of the indigenous culture of the Filipinos. Colorful images of pre-colonial Philippine scenes, costumes, architecture, and folkways vividly enhance the enchanting narratives. This retelling of lasting value and universal appeal conveys the deep respect and reverence for nature and the earth inherent in the forever-loved story that will never grow old.

Review Alice's Adventures in Wonderland / Simply Read Books:Alice in Wonderland is one of the most exciting and original books in world literature. Lewis Carroll's timeless tale of childhood whimsy has something to offer anyone with a curiosity to follow Alice down the rabbit-hole. This limited edition is distinguished by Iassen Ghiuselev's sublime and strangely delightful artwork. He plays masterfully with the original illustrations. Some of his characters, like the Mad Hatter, have a similarity to Tenniel's but, in a sense apart, his images are endowed with brilliant ideas and artistry that go beyond the tradition. His stroke of genius was to create one painting in which the entire story can be absorbed in a glance. The eerie dreamscape plunges viewers into perspective distortions that defy logic and invites them to travel through time and space like Alice herself. A tour de force in innovative book illustration and design, and an essential addition to every Alice in Wonderland collection.

Review Little Plane (Track-Me-Back-Books) / Henry Holt & Company:From an expert in children's language development, four sturdy, interactive board books that develop pre-reading skills while they entertain. Press out the big, colorful vehicle from the front cover and track its journey as it travels through the story. At the end of the book, you can take the little car, boat, plane or train all the way back home again. These books work in two ways: the large, boldfaced text on the right-hand pages is ideal for reading to babies, while slightly older children will enjoy hearing the whole story, as told on both pages. Created by an established expert in children's language development, these four interactive titles are sure to be favorites of both toddlers and preschoolers. Many board books have planes on the front cover-but you can make this one fly through the pages! The little plane pops off the front-it's attached to the spine by a red ribbon and goes wherever you want within the book. Take off from an airfield on the first double-page spread, zoom over various landscapes, and come safely down to the hanger at the other end (before parking on the front cover again). Chocks away: you are number one for take-off! (Baby to preschool) -Richard Farr.
